I'm Coaching What?!?!

Ok, one of my biggest pet peeves is when players on the bench, do not pay attention to the game. What could possibly be more important, than cheering on your teammates?  My rules are straight forward.  No friends or family in or around (5ft radius) the dugout. Zip, zero, nada.  No electronics in the dug out. - cell phones, ear buds, watches etc PAY ATTENTION TO THE GAME!  No full course meals in the dug out. Why? Because I am not cleaning up vomit in the dugout or out on the field. And YES, it can wait till after the game.  Players have got to be prepared; they need their water, their gear, small snacks to get them through the game.  I'm sure you're thinking, wow, you're a mean coach. No I'm not. The players need to concentrate on the game, watch the game, cheer their team on, and listen to the coaches.

Every bat has a weight and drop weight. Bat weights are shown in ounces, while drop weights are shown as negative numbers. The drop weight is determined by subtracting the weight of the bat from its length. The larger the drop weight, the lighter the bat. Lighter bats are often best for beginners and smaller, contact-oriented players. Heavier bats are better suited for older, advanced athletes and larger, power-hitting players. Some leagues only have one drop weight, bat length or barrel diameter.
